The Newark’s Master Plan was a community effort based initiative that is being implemented as we speak. Based largely on the notion of sustainable living, the idea is coming to fruition everywhere you look. Real estate development in Newark is bountiful, yet few outside of the City can discern exactly what is what. The information […]

Our meet is scheduled for 9:00AM, but in the Ironbound a little leeway is always given to men about to match wits. Today Jack and I are to meet with John Airoso, a successful developer who has aided in shaping the Ironbound with his various projects. His current office is on Jabez Street, in a […]

Forest Hill: Mr. Saturday & Jack Ferreira Your first home should never be a one-family. A two or three-family home provides security in terms of mortgage payments, with the property itself generating income for the homeowner. As such, a mortgage of $3,500.00 is easier to digest when you have a tenant covering $1,500.00 of said […]

It wasn’t the WWE’s Attitude Era, when it was still known as the WWF, but it still delivered. Monday Night Raw, the longest-running weekly television show in U.S. history, rocked the Prudential Center this past Monday night in front of a raucous Jersey crowd.

On February 21, 1861, on the steps of the South Park Presbyterian Church, Abraham Lincoln spoke a few poignant words to the citizens from the City of Newark that still resonant today: “With my own ability I cannot succeed, without the sustenance of Divine Providence, and of this great, free, happy, and intelligent people.

Toys“R”Us Express is now open in Newark, after being temporarily deprived of a more notable opening due to Hurricane Sandy. The Express locale stocks most items regularly found at the franchise’s larger retailers, but showcases the intimacy of a local toyshop.

Streetlights have been used on our roads since 1879, yet this past week anyone driving amid the aftermath of Sandy would have found themselves playing right of way chicken with other road warriors.
